Katrell Webb brings chase-down juice and proven production to Purdue’s edge
In the 2026 season, Purdue freshman DE Katrell Webb arrives with a reputation for explosive get-off, speed off the edge, and real backfield disruption after posting 68 tackles, 29 tackles for loss, and 13 sacks in his 2024 high school season[6][11]. He was rated a three-star edge and drew Power Four interest because he looks like a pass-rush problem, not just a body on the line[11][14]. The fit is clear for teams wanting motor, bend, and disruptive upside—but he’s still a first-year college player, so the next step is translating that high school violence into Big Ten snaps[1][3].
